The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson
4.0
This book had a fairly predictable plot. I don't think I was really surprised once while reading it, and I know I was supposed to be. Still, the writing was pretty good, and I liked it enough that I wasn't bothered by the predictability.
The characters were okay, but we really only get to know Jenna in this novel, and the other characters are not fleshed out at all. It's just a journey of self-discovery for Jenna, and that's pretty much it. She does have interactions with other characters, but even those seemed to be interactions to help us understand who Jenna is, and not who anybody else is.
I'd recommend this for a quick read, especially if you like YA books. This book was eerily similar to Skinned by Robin Wasserman--so many plot points were the same, except the stories seemed to go in totally different directions.
